Personal profile
Biography
Timothy Weber is a Research Officer with the 100% Renewable Energy Group at the Australian National University. He has experience modelling 100% renewable energy systems, developing the Global Pumped Hydro Energy Storage Atlases, and exploring the potential for pumped hydro energy storage in Southeast Asia. His research interests relate to feasible pathways for decarbonising the energy system and the role that electricity markets have in efficiently integrating energy storage systems into the grid. He has a background working on the Australian Government’s Large-scale Renewable Energy Target operations.
